Avni Sejpal Exhibits The Faceted Tactile Light Series Lights/Lumieres

Avni Sejpal, the project leader of the displayed design Lights/ Lumieres by Avni Sejpal points out, The Faceted Tactile Light is a tactile and sensory experience of using traditional materials such as brass, copper, bronze and stainless steel to create a seemingly ephemeral and a scintillating light sculpture. Metal/PVC sheets are first cut and then linked together, piece by piece meticulously to form a mosaic of modular cellular structure that results in to a tessellated geometrical form. The Faceted dome is based on Buckminster Fuller’s Geodesic dome. Light permeates facets where they have been linked or stitched and has stretched revealing geometrical lines of construction. Faceted lights are handmade, drawing from India’s heritage of exquisite handicrafts..
